In this paper, we newly propose a traffic information service model that collects traffic information sensed by an individual vehicle in real time by using a smart device, and which enables drivers to share traffic information on all roads in real time using an application installed on a smart device. In particular, when the driver requests traffic information for a specific area, the proposed driver-personalized service model provides him/her with traffic information on the driving directions in advance by predicting the driving directions of the vehicle based on the learning of the driving records of each driver. To do this, we propose a traffic information management model to process and manage in real time a large amount of online-generated traffic information and traffic information requests generated by each vehicle. We also propose a road node- based indexing technique to efficiently store and manage location-based traffic information provided by each vehicle. Finally, we propose a driving learning and prediction model based on the hidden Markov model to predict the driving directions of each driver based on the driver's driving records. We analyze the traffic information processing performance of the proposed model and the accuracy of the driving prediction model using traffic information collected from actual driving vehicles for the entire area of Seoul, as well as driving records and experimental data.

ABOUT THE SOCIETY

Ever since information processing became one of the most important industries in the country, computing professionals have encountered a growing number of challenges.
Along with scholars and colleagues in related fields, they have gathered together at a variety of forums and meetings over the last few decades to share their knowledge and experiences,
and the outcomes of their research. These exchanges led to the founding of the Korea Information Processing Society (KIPS) on January 15, 1993. The KIPS was registered as an incorporated association under the Ministry of Science,
ICT and Future Planning under the government of the Republic of Korea. The main purpose of the KIPS organization is to improve our society by achieving the highest capability possible in the domain of information technology.
As such, it focuses on close collaboration with the nationâs industry, academic, and research communities to foster technological innovation,
to enhance its members' careers, and to promote the advanced information processing industry.
